Suspicious about the second Syrian goal

This is hilarious. Maybe our team just sucked and isn't as good as you think?

As a keeper you are taught to get lower the closer the attacker is to you. Beira was lacking technique in the goal. A professional at his level should make that save with their eyes closed, but he didn't. Beira didn't look focused, but that is CQ's fault for playing so many regular in a meaningless game.

How do we suck by not conceding with 10 men against South Korea?s

We beat Montenegro in a friendly match with both sides having their key players (& since FIFA rankings was affected by it both sides took it seriously) & won the match 2-1. Go look at Montenegro's recent run & how they can potentially qualify for the WC to see how important that win was. We are definitely good enough, we just need proper CBs.

Who's GK coach for PP? This is something his club GK coach should be working on.

Only fucking Iranians... Why are we so prone to believing stupid conspiracy theories?

[persiangodfather]

The sad reality is that Beiravand is average at best and our biggest problem since 2000 Years ago.. we get to emotional and cant beat arabs
If this was Australia Japan or any other mid level team in the world, we would have seen this victory out
My next point will be please CQ find us a goalie who can stand on his dam head because we will need it

We Don't Suck. We SUCKED against Syria. We didn't try to get scored on purposely. Get over it.

Its a direct result of thinking that somehow we are genetically superior to every other middle eastern country.

EVERY BIG team in football has a day when a minnow wins or draws them!! you Think Iran is the only exception???? Mighty teams like Portugal vs Greece. France Vs San Remo Germany vs Sweden Qatar Vs Korea were all humbled , TM had an off day and quite frankly who cares if we drew Syria??? Revel in the fact that in a Syria village devastated by 5 years of civil war you made a young Syrian boy or girl cry of happiness. Stick with that and you will end this conspiracy theory thread my friend, let it go and drift into nirvana knowing your team is going to Russia with CQ in tow!!!!

LOL even Australia with its facilities and infrastructure couldn't get out of it's group. We come first , fail to lose a single game and yet there's still a melt down on here. Imagine how bad it would be if we actually lost a game

This is something which comes to everyone's mind and it will continue for years maybe, i am not saying it was Tabaani or whatever, but we would get extremely mad if UAE, Bahrain would allow such a goal in 91 minutes to eliminate us and call it Tabaani, just saying!

The most problematic thing with CQ

True. Not one of his good days for sure. It happens to the best of the world! Look how Bravo of Chile have conceded 5 goals in two matches against average teams. I think Beiranvand considering his 12 straight Clean Sheet (WCQ record) & 17 CS altogether can be forgiven for his lone mistake in 1150 minutes of football.

I just read that FIFA have said that South Africa and Senegal must play again because they have payed for the result.

I still believe we had to win against Syria by 2:0! Why we had 9 matches games and no goals against. And why Carlos change for new tacties?

FIFA order South Africa and Senegal to replay World Cup qualifier after referee was banned for match manipulation

This decision comes after the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld the lifetime ban of referee, Jospeh Lamptey

South Africa and Senegal have been ordered by FIFA to replay their World Cup qualifier completed in November last year after the referee was given a lifetime ban for "match manipulation".

Home team South Africa won the match 2-1 in Polokwane but the result will not stand after action taken against Ghana official Jospeh Lamptey was upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

A statement said: "The Bureau for the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers ordered a replay of the qualification match between South Africa and Senegal held on 12 November 2016."

"This decision follows the confirmation of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to uphold the lifetime ban of match referee, Jospeh Lamptey, for match manipulation, the ruling imposed by the FIFA Disciplinary and Appeal Committees.

"The match will be replayed within the November 2017 international window, with the exact date to be confirmed in due course.

"As stated in the FIFA World Cup regulations, this decision shall come into effect immediately but shall be subject to confirmation by the Organising Committee for FIFA Competitions at its next meeting, scheduled for 14 September.

In the controversial match, a dubious penalty was awarded to South Africa, leading to protests by Senegal and a FIFA investigation.

After the ban was imposed, Senegal officials have pushed for a replay to give their side, which features Premier League stars Sadio Mane, Cheikhou Kouyate and Idrissa Gueye.

Ghana refereeing officials labelled the life ban on Lamptey "harsh", believing him to have made a genuine error.

The South African Football Association said it is "studying the contents of the report and will issue a statement on intentions to challenge that decision".

A statement continues: "SAFA wishes to also state categorically that it was in no way involved with any wrongdoing related to the actions of the referee, as stated in the FIFA report.

"In the meantime, all issues related to this matter will be handled by Senior Counsel, Mr Norman Arendse."
